Chromosomes Duplicate During the S Phase

• During the S phase all the chromosomes duplicate

• When a chromosome duplicates, it produces a replica chromosome referred to as chromatidor sister chromatid

• Sister chromatids are joint at the centromere

Cell Division: What is it?

Mother Cell

Daughter Cells

Cell Division in Asexual Reproduction: Binary Fission

Cell Division in Eukaryotes: Mitosis

• Mitosis is the mechanism by which somatic eukaryotic cells produce identical daughter cells

• Mitosis produces two identical, diploid daughter cells• Mitosis involves partition of both cytoplasmic and nuclear

structures• Mitosis consist of five phases: prophase, prometaphase,

metaphase, anaphase, and telophase• After telophase, the mother cell splits into two and

produces two daughter cells by undergoing a process referred to as cytokinesis

Cell Division in Sexual Reproduction: Meiosis

Meiosis: Oogenesis and Spermiogenesis

Cell Division in Sexual Reproduction: Meiosis

• Meiosis is the mechanism by which eukaryotic cells produce mature sex cells or gametes

• Meiosis produces four haploid cells (gametes)• Meiosis involves partition of both cytoplasmic and

nuclear structures• Meiosis consists of Meiosis I and Meiosis II. Both

phases are followed by cytokinesis.• Meiosis I consists of four phases: prophase I, metaphase

I, anaphase I, and telophase I.• Meiosis II consists of four phases: prophase II,

metaphase II, anaphase II, and telophase II.• Oogenesis is the production of mature eggs;

spermiogenesis is the production of mature sperm cells

Meiosis and Sexual Reproduction

• Mature gametes (eggs and sperm cells) are produced after meiosis

• Mature gametes (haploid) carry on fertilization to produce a zygote (diploid).

• Meiosis ensures that the number of chromosomes is maintained from parents to offspring

Meiosis: An Overview

• Meiosis consists of Meiosis I and Meiosis II. Cytokinesis follows after each phase

Phases of Meiosis I

Crossing Over (Prophase I)

• Crossing over is the interchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes

• Crossing over occurs during prophase I

• After crossing over, sets of four chromosomes or tetrads are formed

At the end of anaphase I, is the cell haploid or diploid?
